Perspectives on Optimized Transcranial Electrical Stimulation Based on Spatial Electric Field Modeling in Humans
Jose Gomez-Tames,

Abstract:Background: Transcranial electrical stimulation (tES) generates an electric field (or current density) in the brain through surface electrodes attached to the scalp. Clinical significance has been demonstrated, although with moderate and heterogeneous results partly due to a lack of control of the delivered electric currents. In the last decade, computational electric field analysis has allowed the estimation and optimization of the electric field using accurate anatomical head models. This review examines rec… Show more
